Two scoring systems, side by side
Owner scores come from reviews found online; road-test scores come from instrumented tests. Where they disagree, it is usually a discipline owners rarely push to the limit.
How scores work
- Relative score
- 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.
By owner reviews
58/100From 200 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.
By road tests
49/100Scaled across every tested tire: the average gets 70, the best 100.

The Landsail LS588 UHP is widely regarded as a high-value budget tire that offers surprising levels of comfort and low road noise for the price. While many users report satisfactory performance in daily driving conditions, there is a distinct divide in user experience, with some reporting excellent longevity and others experiencing premature structural failures or inconsistent wet-weather grip.
Pros
- Exceptional price-to-performance ratio compared to premium brands
- Very low road noise and high ride comfort
- Competent dry-weather handling and grip for daily commuting
- Good aesthetic appearance and sidewall design
Cons
- Reports of structural integrity issues, including inner sidewall splitting and delamination
- Inconsistent wet-weather performance, with some users noting hydroplaning or lack of confidence
- Vague steering feedback and soft sidewall feel, particularly for spirited driving
- Occasional quality control issues leading to vibrations or balancing difficulties
Worth knowing
- Users with high-torque or heavy vehicles (e.g., BMW 7-series, Audi A8) sometimes report faster wear or the need for higher tire pressures to improve steering response.
- Drivers of smaller, lighter vehicles occasionally report a 'floating' sensation or lack of road feedback due to the tire's soft compound.
- Performance-oriented drivers frequently note that the tire lacks the sharp turn-in precision required for aggressive driving compared to dedicated UHP summer tires.
